Here is what to know before booking a flight to Bogotá from Quebec City and Montreal.

Bogotá is Colombia's high-altitude capital, a sprawling Andean metropolis blending colonial heritage with a thriving arts and food scene. It's known for its historic La Candelaria district, world-class museums, and a cool mountain climate that sets it apart from the country's tropical coasts. Ride the cable car up Monserrate for a jaw-dropping view over the city, then dive into the museums and cafés below - there's so much to explore!
When to go
Sitting high in the Andes, Bogotá stays cool and spring-like all year rather than having traditional seasons. The drier stretches, roughly December to March and again around July and August, tend to be sunnier, while other months see more frequent rain, so a light jacket is wise anytime.
Getting there from Quebec City and Montreal
From eastern Canada, reaching Bogotá almost always means at least one connection, usually through Montreal, Toronto, or a US hub before continuing south. Nonstop service is limited, so depending on your departure city expect one or more stops on the way into the Andes. Confirm your passport and entry requirements before booking.
What to see and do
- La Candelaria historic centre
- The Gold Museum (Museo del Oro)
- Monserrate mountain viewpoint
- The Botero Museum
Good to know before you go
The currency is the Colombian peso, and cash is handy for smaller purchases. Spanish is the main language, so a few basic phrases go a long way. The high altitude can leave you short of breath at first, so take it easy on arrival; for getting around, the cheap TransMilenio bus rapid-transit covers the city but gets crowded, so many young travellers lean on ride apps like Uber and DiDi or registered taxis, and driving yourself in the heavy traffic is best avoided.
